A watchdog group hinted in new legal filings on Friday that the first family’s German shepherd has acquired a taste for Secret Service personnel, just like their last Shep that was banned after biting an agent.

Judicial Watch said that it has filed a Freedom of Information Act lawsuit against the Department of Homeland Security “for records of any incidents of aggression or biting by President Biden’s dog Commander.”
Based on a “tip,” the legal outfit said in a statement that it was requesting “any records related to incidents of aggression and bites involving the Biden family dog, Commander, including communications between Secret Service officials in the Uniformed and Non-Uniformed Divisions involved in White House operations and the Presidential Protection Division.”

Judicial Watch did not come out and say that it knew of any dog-biting by Commander.
But President Tom Fitton strongly suggested it. “Judicial Watch already caught the Biden White House lying about their family dog attacking and injuring Secret Service and White House employees,” he said. “Now it seems their new dog is also out of control and the Secret Service is hiding records about the issue.”

Commander arrived after the Bidens shipped out their older dog, Major, to live with friends. Major, who was 3 at the time, reportedly bit a Secret Service agent in 2021.
Commander arrived in December that year. He was four months old.
